From the "department of trying way too hard", I'd like to mention that you can pull subtitle information and often massage that into a transcript, either with the DOM [0] or by looking at the traffic and downloading it. [1] However, in this case those are subtitles from speech-recognition, so it's only really useful for skimming broadly.
Pasting the whole thing would probably not be useful, but here's a sample from the downloaded XML:
> if you think about it like tiny
components one of the best things about
say a tiny method when you look at a
tiny micro service is it allows you to
consider replacing it but you can change
it you can understand it really quickly
but even if you can't if it's small
enough and it's named well enough and
it's decoupled well enough microservices
tend to be you can throw it away and
just restart if you have to
